You will be shocked to learn that it turns out to have been a typo, since corrected. (Hey, ESPN. While you're at it, how about you fix this mistake, too?) Feldman meant Florida. Florida Atlantic, you see, is a mediocre Sun Belt team that limped to .500 last year and does not feature the Eyeblack Apostle under center. For a few blessed minutes, however, we could dream of a world in which Thom Brennaman would be unable to recite sonnets to Tim Tebow on national television. It is a world I would like very much to live in.

Thanks for your continued support of Deadspin. Petchesky's on tonight. Radio comedy sidekick AJ Daulerio will be back tomorrow.

That's exactly what happened yesterday, though; papers filed by U.S. prosecutors yesterday listed that Barry Bonds has tested positive for steroids in November 2001, which would have been a mere month after the broke the single season home run record. If you're into the whole steroids thing being a big story, well, then that's a big story. Everyone went crazy, and ESPN trotted out Roger Cossack to do that Roger Cossack thing. (Apparently, Roger Cossack is the only guy there who knows how to read government filings.)

And then the news came out, amended: There was a typo. It was supposed to read November 2000, which was news everybody had already. They stuffed Roger Cossack back in his hyperbaric chamber, and everyone went back to their business. But for two hours ... boy! What a story there theoretically was!
